Scattered pilot pattern and channel estimation method for MIMO-OFDM systems

InactiveUS20070253324A1Reduced scattered pilot overheadLess computationally complexPower managementSpatial transmit diversityTime domainCommunications system
A method and apparatus are provided for reducing the number of pilot symbols within a MIMO-OFDM communication system, and for improving channel estimation within such a system. For each transmitting antenna in an OFDM transmitter, pilot symbols are encoded so as to be unique to the transmitting antenna. The encoded pilot symbols are then inserted into an OFDM frame to form a diamond lattice, the diamond lattices for the different transmitting antennae using the same frequencies but being offset from each other by a single symbol in the time domain. At the OFDM receiver, a channel response is estimated for a symbol central to each diamond of the diamond lattice using a two-dimensional interpolation. The estimated channel responses are smoothed in the frequency domain. The channel responses of remaining symbols are then estimated by interpolation in the frequency domain.

Interpolation processing method, interpolation processing device, shape evaluation method, and shape evaluation device

An initial polygon obtained from a point group is used as a control polygon, and a control point of the control polygon is offset in a normal direction by the shortest distance from a limit surface generated by the control polygon, so that the position of new control point is determined to allow a subdivision surface to interpolate the initial polygon, thereby generating the subdivision surface which interpolates the point group. A first process to determine the point on the subdivision surface at the shortest distance from each control point, and a second process to move and offset the control point in the normal direction from the surface by the distance between the point on the surface and the initial control point, are iterated until the distance between the initial point group and the point on the surface satisfies the threshold or becomes smaller than the threshold, thereby generating the subdivision surface interpolating the initial polygon. Consequently, the subdivision surface interpolating the point group is generated within a short operation time period, without solving a linear system.

Determining multispectral or hyperspectral image data

This disclosure concerns the determination of electronic multispectral or hyperspectral images, such as by a processor in a camera. The processor receives first image sensor signals that are associated with a first wavelength and with multiple first imaging elements at respective first imaging element locations. The processor determines a spline approximation to the first image sensor signals across the first imaging element locations and determines the multispectral or hyperspectral image data by interpolating the spline approximation at the pixel location. Finally, the image data is stored on a data store. Using splines to interpolate the image sensor signals outperforms other methods, which means increased image quality due to more accurate interpolation. More specifically, using splines leads to a more accurate spectrum at each point and reduced spectral error compared to other methods.
